i’ve had lots of time lately just to make.
we put the girls to bed, tidy the house, and then j has to study into the night.and i? create.
project life,december daily,layouts.
i’ve been working on something every single night. and it’s weird. but wonderful. 🙂
here’s what i came up with last night:
a while ago i received a big old box from two peas. it was full of the new crate paper on trend line and i’ve been itching to play with it.
i combined it with some dear lizzy and the result makes me ridiculously,unusually happy. 🙂
and of course (it seems to always be the case lately) i had to add doilies and some mme enamel dots.
i am in love with this darling vellum banner from crate paper, i so wish i would have bought multiples.
Nat -Tea, cake and make says
Love that banner, I think I will recreate it with vellum I already have, embroidery floss and stamps & gold ink 🙂

This is so beautiful. I love how you don’t have seem to use a million tools/technique but still create something that takes my breath away. Something is really missing from the inspiration at SC without you. Glad you have time to create again! I feel like my life has been going the other way lately..

Linda E says
I was drawn to that picture when you posted it the other day and so looking forward to to seeing you create with it. You did not disappoint. This is a gorgeous layout. I forget, Stephanie! Do you have separate albums for each of the girls or do you put your layouts into one album as you go? I have separate albums but these days I am lucky if my layouts get into any album let alone the “right” one!
Erin R. says
Not going to lie, I’m kind of jealous that you’ve had time to create every night. (But I’m glad for you.) :o)
Michele Bailey says
Beautiful layout! I wish I had half your talent.

Stephanie Howell says
Okay. Ashamed to admit this but right now I have NO system. They all just sort of get thrown in albums. Eeeeek!!!!
